Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Sithanandam?
Very Unprofessional doctor. She is so rude and did not care for my daughter when she was sick. She failed to answer my questions and concerns to my satisfaction. Later when asked by others She bad mouthed me to others to cover her reputation which are contradictory to her own treatment provided at the time. She is the owners daughter and is not afraid that some one will fire her due to her unprofessional conduct. She is not even fit to be a veterinarian, let alone a pediatrician.
